The Great Garden.
El Gran Jardín means "the great garden" — a fitting name for a restaurant tucked inside Windsor Gardens, looking out across the Emerald Greens Golf Course.
A neighborhood restaurant, open to the neighborhood and everyone else.
We're inside the Windsor Gardens community — a 55-plus neighborhood in southeast Denver — but we're open to the public. Anyone can walk in.
Breakfast starts at 9 a.m. seven days a week. The bar opens with the kitchen. The patio looks out over the 9th green. Parking is free and plentiful.
The menu is Mexican and American, because that's how we eat. Enchiladas on one side of the table, a pot roast on the other, and two kids sharing the cinnamon tortilla bowl.
9:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m.
9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
